Greenwich Avenue is THE place to shop in Greenwich, where everything-- and I do mean EVERYTHING-- is $20.00 up to at least a Mill. It's one of the only places on earth where you have a Starbucks, a Wishlist, a Saks, and at least three jewelers all within three blocks of each other.
Greenwich Avenue also has strong seperation between the parties. The preps hang in the middle of "the Ave", near Starbucks and Wishlist. The ghetto kids hang near the Railroad Ave movie theater, where there are two pizza places within walking distance. The outcast/ normal kids hang in the park in the center of "the Ave".
So the next time you are looking to spend thousands of dollars in one day, whether it be on food, clothing, or jewelry, come visit Greenwich, and hang on "the Ave".

Get the Greenwich Avenue mug.A Town on the East Coast that is extremely close to New York City. Many of the kids who go there are excessivally good looking, have rich or famous parents, and own everything they want. You do not exsist if you do not consistantly wear ralph lauren or lacoste polos, and if you do not use the correct launguage while interacting, then nothing will make sense to the people you are talking to. (Language consists of the phrases "mad" "chill" and "straight". Often kids will be sent off to boarding school due to bad behavior, and then kicked out since boarding school suplys more drugs than a rich g-wich kid can ask for. During the summer if you do not sail or travel around the world then you most likely belong to a rich summer club (or rocky point) that has either golf, tennis, or sailing. Depending on who you involve yourself with, you could get nice friends, or friends who will always be your enemies. (also, parties are off the hook)The most popular sport is water polo (mainly for boys) and most all the water polo boys are exremely gorgeous and are excessive stoners.
Sebastian: That dude didnt pop his coller today, his polo wasn't even lacoste or ralph lauren
Dylon: Dude thats not straight, lets pop him at lunch after we hit that joint
Sebastian:Shyea dude, that sounds mad chill
Laura: Excuse me bitches but that doesn't seem right, i give him points for at least layering the nantucket red and sailboat yellow

Sebastian and Dylon: Tall blondes with aviators and rainbows, IQ ranges from 55-75 points

Get the greenatree mug.A small quiet town in Southeastern part of Rhode Island nearby the towns of Narragansett, Coventry, North Kingstown, and Warwick, filled with what you could, say wealthy people. not everyone's wealthy of course, there are townies and there are people, who are just middle-class and live there like me. Always stereotyped as the rich town full of rich house wives who wear Burberry 10,000 dollar shoes, the rich town full of rich, spoiled, unfriendly, elitist brats and people who live there are always called a "walking ATM machine" But remember, not everyone's rich in East Greenwich. Many successful people today started from EG. East Greenwich is the only republican town in Rhode Island.
East Greenwich is know for its beautiful bay views, art galleries, and restaurants and is rich in history.
East Greenwich is a pretty safe community and that's one of the reasons why some people choose to live there, even though the house prices are quite expensive, rather than cities like Cranston.
Most East Greenwich students are quite smart and have A+ grades. East Greenwich schools have the highest test scores in the state. Most kids have cell phones and iPods, by the time they reach middle school. And most of the kids wear brand names, such as Abercrombie and Fitch, American eagle, etc. And some of the richer kids wear Lacoste, Juicy Couture, etc. Most people are very preppy.
From my experience, most people in East Greenwich generally tolerate those who they aren't friends with. But of course, no one says hello to nobody they know. Gossip lives well, very much thriving and alive, and so does talking behind people's backs. Of course, they are some stuck-ups, who act like total bitches. But most EG kids aren't open to anyone different. If you are different and not "in", you are automatic an enemy.
The "Townies" generally live in downtown East Greenwich or south of post road, and most of the time has a lower income than everyone else. Most Townies are wannabe gangsters and are quite tough and loathe the rich people of the town.
Popular or preppy girls are usually very skinny with big hips, who usually love to shop. Most popular or preppy guys are skinny and bony or they are very lean, who usually are very much into sports or have some personality trait such as being funny, that makes them popular.
Most of the wealthier people of East Greenwich live in the costly housing developments located on Middle Road or in other nearby roads such as, Tillinghast. The most expensive housing development is "The Woods" and is where usually the richest, most popular kids live. The minimum price for a house in one of these housing developments is 800,000 dollars and the maximum is over 3 million dollars.
Those who don't live in the costly housing developments, but still mostly upper-class, usually live on the roads that the expensive housing developments are located on.
Despite, being a wealthy town, the East Greenwich Schools are not-so wealthy. The condition of most of the schools is terrible. Someone wrote earlier that East Greenwich district cut the High School's Music program and instead spends their money on a third gym. That's not true. The East Greenwich School District has no money to build a third gym and they haven't cut the high school's music program. Kids only go to 1-2 field trips a year. The textbooks are from 1980 and in some classes, kids don't even have textbooks. And all East Greenwich Schools have only one gym. Eldredge, Cole and EGHS are all very old. The schools rarely ever have enough money to buy certain equipment, only after book fairs or certain events that raise money for the school, does the school have enough money to buy equipment. For example, it took the schools about four years to save up and buys new computers and laptops for schools and finally get rid of the 1989 Apple or Gateway computers. This is because East Greenwich Schools receives less money then other school districts such as Cranston and Warwick from the government every year, since East Greenwich is thought to be such a "well off" town. So other school districts have alot more money than the East Greenwich School district. And nobody donates a ton of money to the schools.
At EGHS, a high population of students has their own car or uses their parent's car instead of taking the bus. The townies are usually the druggies and the smokers. The cool kids usually hold parties every Friday/weekend. And a lot of people drink alcohol. The EGHS football team is one of the best football teams in the state. EGHS's mascot is an avenger, a knight on a horse with a sword.
At Cole Middle School, there are only two grades, 7th and 8th and each grade is divided up into three groups. The classes are easy compared to the high school. Cole's mascot is a lancer, very similar to EGHS’s mascot, the avenger. The girl's basketball team is always usually terrible; they usually lose all of the season's games. They haven't won the championships or made to the playoffs, since 1996. The boy's basketball team however is quite different, the coach is very tough and the boy's team is quite good.
At, Eldredge and Hanaford, the two elementary schools consists of three grades, fourth, fifth, and sixth. Cliques are usually decided around fourth grade and once cliques are decided, they pretty much stay the same up to the high school. Students usually start dating in 5th grade. Both the school's mascots are the eagle.
Meadowbrook and French town are the two other elementary schools, consisting of four grades, KG, first, second and third grade. Nothing interesting much happens in Frenchtown. All, you do is learn the letters, colors, some math and alphabet and play most of the time, before heading to Eldredge or Hanaford, where the real fun starts.
The racial makeup of the town is 95.64% White, 0.69% African American, 0.06% Native American, 2.50% Asian, 0.01% Pacific Islander, 0.29% from other races, and 0.82% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race is 0.90% of the population.

Get the greenwich mug.An amazing place loved by everyone who lives there. The only haters are the jealous. Kids can be brats, but that's only natural coming from a wealthy town, just like anywhere else in the world. It's not according to the town actually, more just the parents of these kids. Yeah people may smoke, drink, and party really hard, but honestly, who doesn't? It's pretty ignorant to say such stereotypical things about Greenwich. It's a gorgeous place with amazing shopping and yeah the people are pretty well-dressed. But, why wouldn't they be if they have the money to be?
Ryan: God I hate Greenwich, CT, it's full of rich snobs.
Tom: Dude you're just jealous.
RYan: Yeah I guess, it is pretty fucking awesome. ANd the parties are sick!

Get the Greenwich, CT mug.One of the best places on the planet to live. East Greenwich is a quaint village in the center of Rhode Island nestled on an inlet of Narragansett Bay. Residents of the town are generally split into two groups, townies and everyone else. Townies generally live in the area of town south of post road, and east of first ave. They are generally lower income from the rest of the towns more affluent residents. They have a mix of wigger and cranston in their demenor. They are tough to the bone, and won't back down from a fight. They have an excellent basketball team, that can be seen running the courts at Eldridge in the Summer, and at Open Gym on Mondays in the winter. East Greenwich boasts one of the top notch High School Football programs in all of Rhode Island. Utilizing the famed wing T offense, the Avengers have been a strong program for over 50 years. East Greenwich also boasts a nightlife second to none, with such establishments as The Oaks, The EG Hotel, Norman's, and The End Zone.
The East Greenwich Coach ran the wing T offense all over Johnston on Friday night.
Coach: Alright, straight wing T, Brown Right waggle 46 counter trade.
QB: Got it.
